GWU Development and Alumni Mentoring Application & PERT Chart Papers look the samples first because prof wants me to follow the sample

I have a group project and the other team member complete the first two deliverable

I will attach you the project that was completed so far by other group member which is

Deliverable 1: Project Charter

Deliverable 2:

a. Financial Analysis (NPV and ROI)

b. WBS(Work Breakdown Structure)

This two deliverable are done.

you need to work on deliverable 3 only which includes the following

1. PERT
a. Draw a network diagram (PERT chart) based on the WBS of your project.
b. Identify the critical path on the network diagram. You can do it in another color.
c. What is the earliest expected completion time of the project.
d. What are the Early Start and the Latest Start of each activity.
e. What are the Early Finish and Latest Finish of each activity.
f. Calculate slack times for each activity.

2. Risk Register
See sample of risk register under “Projects” in the left navigation bar.

3. Project Close-Out
See samples of project close-out documents under “Projects” in the left navigation bar. You can use any of these samples or come up with your own format/items for project close-out.

I will attach you the project file which is under the name Project Management plan 1 that include the work of deliverable 1 and 2 that you need to continue working on deliverable 3 and the sample that the prof gave plus pdf report(skip 15-24 because it does not relate to deliverable

finally include

Project Report The project report will combine all homework assignments listed above, plus it should have introduction, conclusion, and references sections. Project Management Plan:

Introduction
The XYZ IIST program is currently undergoing a transition period as observed by the
recent onboarding of a few new instructors. By seeking out CPS alumni we hope to
leverage their past academic experience of how the program was structured and what
changes they feel are helpful going forward based on their current career demands.
This project will establish a web application to facilitate a continuous program
development mechanism and a mentorship mechanism. Phase 1 of this project consists
of the initial planning to include a sitemap, wireframes, and database scheme. Phase 1
is complete once the web application is considered functional. Phase 2 consists of
gathering alumni to participate, web design, content, and styling. Upon completion of
Phase 2 a short period, approximately 1-2 months, will facilitate the transition of the
project to CPS operations after which the project will be closed.

Project Objectives: Create a website using XYZ infrastructure that will facilitate an ongoing
relationship with XYZ alumni, CPS staff, and current students. Once complete, turn over control
and operation of the website to CPS operations.
Main Success Criteria: The website must be in a functional state by the end of 2020. The
project will end once alumni have been gathered, final changes to web design/style/content are
complete, and a successful transition to CPS operations is complete.
Approach:
•

•
•
•
Consult GW Marketing and Creative Services to determine if an official XYZ website or
an unofficial blog would better suit our needs.
Inquire XYZ IT services about Integrating XYZ NetID credentials and profile data.
Decide on a web platform and itemize initial hosting costs.
Create a sitemap.
Create wireframes and databases for the program development section.
Create wireframes and databases for the alumni section.

NPV and ROI
Our project is based on the fictional assumption that it is solving an anticipated problem for XYZ
CPS. The anticipated problem is that enrollment in the BPS IIST/IT program will drop because
of the loss of a very dedicated and engaged dean.
This project is premised on the idea that we can build a web application that will
(1) ensure our program remains relevant by allowing alumni to participate in curriculum
development
(2) bring in additional revenue by offering a university wide structured mentorship
program for a fee.
The mentorship service will award volunteer mentors either continuing education units (CEUs)
or XYZ credit hours, and charge mentees an annual fee of $40.
The following assumptions are the result of our fictional meetings with XYZ Creative Services
and XYZ IT.

Costs (annual)
o Website construction: $ 29,354
o Hosting and miscellaneous expenses: $4,568 with est. 10% increase per year
Benefits (annual)
o Profit from program enrollment: $ 9000 with est. 10% growth per year
o
Revenue from mentorship fees: $40/mentee x 75 mentees = $ 3000 with est.
10% growth per year
Assuming a 10% increase in cost, and a 10% increase in revenue year over year, we will be
profitable in year five. Over the first five years we anticipate an ROI of 8.83% (Figure 1).
